When The Last Dance dropped in 2020, Jordan sat back with his cigar and dad jeans, with an unknown Jordan 1 on his feet. This wasn’t the traditional 1 with the amazing color blocking in the Bulls colorway. It was a shoe that looked as if it belonged on a tennis court. The all-black model didn’t cause a stir, but sneaker blogs did explain that the model was named the Centre Court. The model is the perfect dad shoe. It’s simply with a premium aesthetic. The shoe features the Jordan Wings stitched in leather around the heel, a suede heel tab and tongue that have the classic Jordan brand logos. There is also an added detail on the inside of the tongue pulled from the Air Jordan 23. MJ’s fingerprint and signature are on the right and left shoe respectively. While sneaker culture won’t lose it over the model, it is right on time for the holiday season if you want to get your old school pops a pair of Js.
